Every single drawing you do always happens in your imagination. Our imagination always plays a major role when we draw. There are occasions that you might ask questions like the best way to draw a scene that exist only in imagination? For some people it may be very easy to draw from imagination while other people finds it tough to focus drawing. It is said that when you draw pictures that only exist in the imagination is like wanting to catch a cloud that easily disappear whenever you get a hold onto it. Yet, always remember that we may not be aware of it but we have a Picasso inside us. All we need to do is to acknowledge it.

Here are some ideas on how to get hold and draw from your imagination.

For an artist, it helps you if you always bring your sketchbook. You won't know when will be the time you'll feel to draw or when will your imagination works best, so keep your sketchbook handy. Other than sketchbook, bring with you a notepad also; there are times when we rather put into words first the things we want to draw. This is an advantage to you so that you can keep the details of the things you would like to draw.

One more thing to do to in order to get a beautiful imagination for your drawing is to find inspiration. If you're inspired you can do the things that you think is impossible. Imagination is definitely the food for the mind; by being inspired you can have fresh new ideas.

Being in a closed door room for weeks or days will make you dull. So it will be better to head out, have some good time trip to acquire beautiful ideas and new imagination for your new piece of drawing. You don't have to venture to other countries or anything, a small town closes to your area, or maybe a beach near you will do, as long as you go out from that four-walled door.

A great way to get new imagination is to meet new people. It's always useful to talk and meet new people because you can get new ideas from them. Many people might not like this but I tell you, reading books will get your imagination rolling. Whatever book it is, you could always get something from it. Watching television and films could also provide you with new ideas and will turn on your imagination to draw new things. It is also helpful to ask what other people think about your drawing especially if it is abstract, so that you will know if what you think about your drawing is the same or different with what others think.

An example is how you to draw a landscape from imagination. You cannot really draw it right away without examining a landscape personally. You need to see a landscape yourself, or maybe a good picture of a beautiful landscape. Examine and take note of every details. Probably the most important thing to take into account is the source of light. In your drawing, you must be consistent with the light source, you must learn when or where to place the shadows to make the drawing more realistic. Then think about the things that you would like to include in your drawing. The textures and tones must be considered also.

Try not to be afraid to do what you imagine. Always put in mind that there's no two perfectly the same things and what you imagine isn't the same with others so just follow your imagination. Art always is based on the mind of the artist.
